I would always think of RR's as a bit tricky. SUV's aren't my bag, but it does seem that they know how to mix the ingredients well to produce a decent car.

However, it does seem that they use fairly poor quality ingredients, and a poor quality of build, so their reliability, failures and warranty issues are always a bit of a concern.

Also, they have been having a very tricky time with parts availability. They did some big logistics revamp last year on warehouses and parts stock and it doesn't seem to have gone well. I haven't heard so much about it here, but in the UK customers have had cars off the road for months because parts aren't available. Have a look at the prices of secondhand parts on e-Bay, etc. to see the effect of that. This may be a fixable issue, but it seems to have been to have been going on for a long time (18 months or so at this stage), and not a lot of evidence that its resolved, despite the optimistic tone, from JLR, in one of the links below.

Interestingly, this also seems to have highlighted a major security issue with their "comfort access" equivalent that has made them quite vulnerable to theft. They've been rolling out software updates but have only recently offered the update for 2018-2021 cars, with not much said on if/when they'll address the issue on older ones. Hand in hand with the value of parts soaring due to the supply chain issues, above, this means that they've been targeted a lot in the UK, and by all accounts they are practically un-insurable in the south east of England at the moment. this got to the point where JLR had to introduce their own brand insurance (and presumably subsidize it) in order to keep customers on the road (if they weren't already off the road waiting for parts), and the cost to insure even with that is enormously high relative to alternatives. A bit of a perfect storm.

I haven't seen or heard much specifically about the PHEV RR's, but I would have thought that since electrics and electronics have generally been a weak point in terms of reliability on JLR products over recent generations, it would pay to be prepared for the worst, or steer around with another brand.

Its a pity, because it does seem like they have pretty effective cars, but a lot of reasons to not necessarily want to be the owner after the warranty runs out.
